It's another tidbits day it seems, a few bits of info to keep you informed, while MLPcritic prepares today's headline story, regarding Atryl's NSFW blog takedown. Up top is Nightmare Night Dallas' announcement that vendor apps have closed, so if you wanted to be in on that, and you didn't apply, it's ogre.

In today's tidbits, we have a musical treat for everyone. The other day, we received a link to a video from an up-and-coming brony musician named "ShelDOG", who knows how to rock the piano. He does covers of MLP songs, and will be making a bunch of them.

Though there are hundreds of talented brony musicians, its refreshing to see some new blood, especially one who has only recently begun playing the piano.

"Yeah, right now I'm working on a true true friend. Im also in an irl brony band and we plan on doing full acoustic cover videos of smile, the theme song, hearts strong as horses, ect... also planning to do fan music, and eventually branch out beyond the realm of mlp. I play drums and piano, where on the drums iv'e been playing for 15 years, the piano I just started 4 months ago, inspired by mlp. Becuase of my experiance on the drums and my knowlage of theory, I was able to quickly pick up piano, but I am not trained at all, have no idea about proper finger placement of technique, I kinda just do what feels right."

ShelDOG was recently diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma. We wish him well.

Next up, news from Hasbro investor release pegs "Fall 2014" as being the kickoff of Season 5, but we'll believe it when we see it.

The HN staff supposedly made a new podcast episode. Don't ask me what its about, I sure as hell didn't listen to it. (I'm told it's actually the "BUCK" interview or something).

This is a site we have never seen before: "http://www.bronies.info/" The ".info" reassures us that it is a highly informative webpage with crucial data for every fan.

The "Pony Clop Stash" tumblr got taken down due to inappropriate content. Another one bites the dust.

If for some, unthinkable reason, you need a dedicated app to keep track of all the pony conventions in the world, and are also an iWouldmakeajokehere user, there is in fact an app for that. If you can tell us WHY, that would be a bigger news bit.

Also, just because a week later, we see that his point was proven well, here is the Nostalgia Critic, who made mention of ponies just to get the views.

The podcast is nice to listen to, but there is a lot of room to grow. You seem to be a bit disorganized and there are a lot of unnecessary sounds from someone. Open microphone is _very_ bad, unless you are not doing anything else. Push-to-talk is the way to go if you want to do anything else while talking.
